2. Literature Revew
Image means to use figurative languages to represent objects, actions and ideas in such a way that it appeals to our physical senses. Image is both the spirit of poetry and the aesthetic correspondence between artists’ affection and objects. Including music, drama and even sports, it covers a wide range of many fields where poetry exists as a special pattern. Eagle image may be defined as an aesthetic image carried by eagle so as to inflect the philosophical concepts. 源'自:751`!论~文'网www.751com.cn Eagle image absolutely doesn’t only means something about eagle, but it describes eagle’s life to bring out a few issues over human beings. Based on that, we can explore the inner intention by means of analyzing different external images. Over the past years, numerous native scholars have made a series of analysis upon the image of “The Eagle” and “Hawk Roosting”. Sun Huaxiang pided eagle image of “The Eagle” into five parts, i.e. auditory image, symbolic image, kinesthetic image, metaphorical image and abstract image. He claimed that no image in any poems is found to be independent of others. They are relatively independent, but also have influence on each other, forming an “image chord” among a group of images. In “The Eagle”, the theme of the “image chord” is the poet’s sorrowful expression to Hallam by means of the image of the eagle. Nevertheless, the presentation of the theme is by the “image chord” of these six images (Sun Huaxiang, 1998: 31-34). Zhu Fengying once claimed, “The eagle in the poem is favorably presented as being strong and tough, proud and majestic, sharp-eyed, alert and quick in movement. Instead of stating these qualities directly, the poet makes use of poetic devices to achieve this effect. The devices used in the poem include: sound pattern, rhyme scheme, word choice and carefully used punctuation marks. These devices make the whole poem appeal to the readers’ visual as well as aural sense. It is as if the readers could see and hear the bird” (Zhu Fengying, 2002: 81-84). Besides the study of “The Eagle”, Zhang Lin and Zheng Xiaoqing got a conclusion after analyzing a series of animal poems from Ted, that “Hawk Roosting” not only implies the violence of the hawk image, but also eulogizes the mysterious power in Nature and its manifestation in humans. The symbol of the hawk image is so multiple that it can symbolize the whole animal world, and the Great Nature all creatures living in, even the entire human society (Zhang Lin & Zheng Xiaoqing, 2006: 42-46). These essays give me a great deal of inspiration which is useful to my writing. Aimed at analyzing the two poems’ thematic meaning and different inflectional emotion in two totally different historical time, this article is going to compare Hughes’ Hawk Roosting and Tennyson’s The Eagle at the angle of eagle image. The article is to be pided into five parts. The first is the introduction of Tennyson and Hughes, as well as a few of former studies of the eagle images in the two works. The second part is going to state the theme and the concrete images in the two poems. The next will be intended to find the main differences between “The Eagle” and “Hawk Roosting”. After that, the writer will analyze the several reasons for the differences, which is the most important in this article. The last part is the conclusion of the whole article.
